Wordiezett So much average

TrueHello Fun premise, good actors, bad writing. This film seemed to have potential at the beginning but it quickly devolves into a trite action film. Ultimately it's very boring.

Rosie Searle It's the kind of movie you'll want to see a second time with someone who hasn't seen it yet, to remember what it was like to watch it for the first time.

Bob This is one of the best movies I’ve seen in a very long time. You have to go and see this on the big screen.

leethomas-11621 Laid back approach to exciting drama that gets where it's going to very slowly and quietly. For the most part though the director keeps us distant from the characters and the action. Unfortunately this limits our involvement.

Brightthings You'd be better off reading the plot of this somewhere and saving yourself some time. But if you like watching different people driving vehicles for extended periods from a passenger's perspective, you'll love this. The makers were obviously looking for some kind of real-time realism by keeping the camera lingering on scenes where nothing important happens, where a person is just thinking and driving. This kind of reminded me of car interior scenes in early Tarantino films (the only ones of his worth watching). However, they were more stylish and involved action and purpose.In this movie, the okay acting is spoiled by the pointlessly long lingering shots in vehicles and elsewhere. Check out Sicario instead if you're looking for a Mexican cartel movie and avoid this one.

GRBBack This has to be one of the worse movies of all time. It is a very slow paced movie and poorly directed. It takes 5 minutes for the movie to let you know that Tim Roth is driving a suburban with the kid in the back sleeping. Then they are taken to the boys uncle who is eating and wants to see the A.T.F. agent. He tells his guard to go get him, (remind you, the vehicle is parked in a gated area next to the back door)the uncle clears the table of ALL dishes and washes them ALL, before agent is brought in. Then another scene the boy is crying for five minutes while we as an audience have to endure this for no reason. Make your point in the movie and then move on to next scene. The rating of "R" is not for any of the shooting that takes place. It is for ridiculous and retarded. Just before head gunrunner is killed, Tim Roth runs out back door and kid is cowering behind a credenza. One of Capi's men without taking any precautions, runs directly into the same path as Tim had traveled only to be mowed down. In summary: Anyone wanting to save themselves some money and want to have a boring evening, I'll be glad to give you my copy..Such a waste!!!

Leftbanker First of all, the sound quality was awful and by sound quality I mean diction. The Spanish was so bad that it barely qualifies as that language. I just didn't feel like trying to understand every word of some ignorant street urchin and I doubt any Spanish speaker outside of northern Mexico could understand much of what the kid was saying. His English was worse and although this may be realistic it doesn't really play well in a film in which dialogue is so important. Diction classes would have been a wise pre-shooting decision.There just isn't enough here for a movie. I liked the look into America's ultra-creepy gun culture and this is something we really need to examine more thoroughly. The fact that a teenager can walk into a gun show and walk out with enough fire power for a small war is nothing but creepy. The people buying these weapons in Mexico are thoroughly evil and the narcos' death cult is probably second only to ISIS on the list of ghoulish human activities.In the end not much of a script and with very little to say.
